I wasn't sure how I did with the lower body workout until the next day. Whew! I cannot remember the last time I was so sore. I think I may have done some of the exercises wrong, because I couldn't feel it in other parts of my legs, but my quads were worked out! Tonight is the first time that I've been able to squat down on the floor again. That first day after, going downstairs was almost impossible. I didn't do the aerobic exercise Tuesday, because I didn't want to injury myself. Then Wednesday, I missed the upper body workout. My success will be getting back on track and doing tonight, what I missed this morning and not letting this derail me.
